May I commend unto the assembled masses Hippocrates RN by Herbert Ellis. It's the memoirs of a RN doctor who got his wings and was transferred to the Aeronautical Medicine section at Farnborough. Interesting and funny with some classic bits, such as when he hung his laundry from a hawser running across his cabin under the flight deck of a carrier. This was fine for the first few times an aircraft landed then the next time there was a whirring noise and he saw his freshly laundered shirt disappearing at a rate of knots through a hole in the cabin wall.
